The supportInformation is extended to also read the properties
on all effects. In addition each effect can be queried just for
itself through D-Bus, e.g.:
qdbus org.kde.kwin /KWin supportInformationForEffect kwin4_effect_blur
All effects are extended to provide their configured and read
settings through properties. In some cases also important
runtime information is exposed.

BUG: 305338
FIXED-IN: 4.9.1
This patch adds a new function Toplevel::addLayerRepaint, that in contrast
to addWorkspaceRepaint does not invalidate every blur texture cache that
overlaps with that region. As the name suggests it rather invalidates the
to the window associated layer at that position. This is especially useful
in the case of move/resize events in combination with oxygen-transparent,
where the altered window is almost always the topmost window and the blur
texture cache of the windows underneath are unchanged.
For the case of fully opaque windows the behaviour of addLayerRepaint
and addWorkspaceRepaint should be same.

This fixes graphical glitches that appear next to the borders of plasma
tooltips. Additionally I added a variable that forces the effect to
drop the cache, which might be useful in the future to fix bugs.
This patch introduces some kind of damage propagation. In the old version of the blur effect
we had to repaint the whole window if sth behind the blurred area was damaged. The new texture
cache, which was introduced by the last patch, gives us the opportunity to only update parts of
blurred background texture. This means that the damaged area can only propagate with the speed
of the blurring radius per window layer.
REVIEW: 102665
This patch adds an optional texture cache to the blur effect such that damaged windows in
front of the blurred region dont trigger a repaint of the whole blurred region which pretty
often results in a avalanche repaint of nearly the whole screen.
REVIEW: 101977
Optimize the region of the screen that's painted in each frame,
and paint the windows top-to-bottom when the damaged region doesn't
intersect any blurred areas.
All previously existing windowAdded methods are renamed to slotWindowAdded.
EffectsHandlerImpl is connected to Workspace's clientAdded signal, which is
emitted a little bit earlier than the previous direct method call. This might
change behavior.
Another signal is added to Workspace to signal that an unmanaged is added.
Applications can use this hint to specify the region under the
the window where the blur effect will be applied.

"MakeTransparent" to "Translucency" so that it matches its visible name.
